oh how i wish to be a kid who didnt have to care again!

In the last year i have made a concious effort to start paying more attention to the news, I began to realise that i often had no idea what was goin on around me or what was happening in tehw ay of major events because i paid no attention.

I hated watcing teh new because i swaer it left me feeling sad and it was so depressing, but now in my .. I'm gonna be an adult now stage i read the news online daily ( wether its partly to give em soemthing to do at work i have no comment :p )

It make sme sad though how depressing it still is! how sick and twisted our world is.. liek c'mon! its crazy... the last 3 weeks ive read heaps about the guy who kept wis daughter hostage for 24 years while she boe and raised his children... sick right? or recvently about the shootings in america.. such a loss of precious life. the world is ful of lost people doing tragic things... and i rea dit feeling ata loss, should i be scared.. to travel? to even walk teh streets after dark, to go out? another part of me has this problem wher eim overly compassionate and wanna help! i wish there was a way to minister to these people. So i guess teh one positive in taht is my news time has also become my prayer time!

What saddens me also though, is i open my ninemsn news page and am inundated with pain and horror and bad stuff but it isnt till i search and ive read everything else that i find the page that says someoen has done something great! something right is happening in this world

My wish... Lets start being aware of tehw orld for what it is.. lets throw away our rose coloured glasses and live a dying world to save.
Lets promote the Good news, lets proclaim the gospel and lets fight for our world.

its just reminds me even more of teh song that has i know been going through my head alot recently... People need teh Lord:

Everyday they pass me by,
I can see it in their eyes.
Empty people filled with care,
Headed who knows where?
On they go through private pain,
Living fear to fear.
Laughter hides their silent cries,
Only Jesus hears.
People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
At the end of broken dreams, He's the open door.
People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
When will we realize, people need the Lord?
We are called to take His light
To a world where wrong seems right.
What could be too great a cost
For sharing Life with one who's lost?
Through His love our hearts can feel
All the grief they bear.
They must hear the Words of Life
Only we can share.
People need the Lord, people need the Lord
At the end of broken dreams, He's the open door.
People need the Lord, people need the Lord.
When will we realize that we must give our lives,
For peo-ple need the Lord.
People need the Lord.
